Description
OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE
Introduced in 1976 and produced through 1986, the Jeep CJ-7 is from the renowned CJ (Civilian Jeep) series, which traces its roots back to the original WWII Willys MB. The CJ-7 was much bigger than the CJ-5; at 153” overall, its 93.5” wheelbase was 10 full inches longer than the CJ-5’s, which improved both legroom and ride and handling characteristics.
The CJ-7 came with rugged four- or six-cylinder engines, which were mated to manual or automatic transmissions and equipped with four-wheel-drive systems. As production continued, an optional automatic with full-time Quadra-Trac four-wheel drive was offered, front disc brakes became standard in 1977, and a fully boxed frame added strength in 1978.
This highly customized 4x4 has been refinished in custom David Palmer paint and graphics, with fender flares, custom bumpers, and 15” chrome wheels adding to the unique look. Inside, black bucket seats featuring houndstooth-style inserts and a tilt steering column add comfort, and the driver’s right foot controls a swapped-in 305ci Chevrolet V8 backed by a five-speed manual transmission and a two-speed transfer case.
